This post will be updated as new family members are born and old ones die. This is through my personal choice as I sometimes lose track of all the names in some of the lengthier AAR's.
The AAR itself will be told in the form of a history book. With occasional references from memoirs.
Although it is Ahistorical I will not be blitzing the map. I have made a few house rules to help me here:
~ No retraining of units (unless they have no chevrons of experience)
~ Captains cannot lead armies
Any and all comments will be greatly appreciated, as will CONSTRUCTIVE criticism, if you notice I have made a mistake with translations or the spelling of words don't hesitate to mention.
The first chapter will probably be up in the next few days.
Cheers, Roka
